I visited the tourist attractions in Edinburgh and the prevailing thought in my mind was that Edinburgh was the place in the past few hundred years where history was made, but now tourists visit Edinburgh to “see history” instead of “making history”.

I thank everyone for attending this launch and in particular the writer, Kee Thuan Chye, for this two-volume biography.
As Kee has testified, I did not know what he was writing, and the first time I read both volumes were when they were printed. I do not agree with all that he has written, in particular his speculations, but I would recommend both volumes as an insight of my 57 years of political struggle.
Challenge to Hadi to go through the two volumes of Kee Thuan Chye’s biography on me and substantiate his wild and preposterous allegations that I am anti-Malay, anti-Islam, anti-Royalty, communist and spreading Islamophobia or retract the allegations

As I said at the launching of the Mas Gading Member of Parliament, Mordi Bimol’s Service Centre in Lundu this morning, the Malaysian national anthem, the Sarawak state anthem, and the DAP party anthem have one thing in common — they reflect the diversity and unity of a plural society where the different races, religions, and cultures co-operate and co-exist to create understanding, tolerance, and harmony.

Posted by Kit in nation building on Tuesday, 19 September 2023
At a time when Parliament is debating the Report of the Mid-Term Review of the 12th Malaysia Plan, it is appropriate for Malaysians to ask: “Where will Malaysia be when it celebrates its first Centennial in 2057 in 34 years’ time?
In 1991, when the 30-year Vision 2020 was launched to achieve a fully developed country by the year 2020, there were 19 “developed countries” out of more than 160 states.

There is no better way to mark the 60th Malaysia Day than to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry to ascertain how the Rukun Negara objectives and principles have been achieved in the last 53 years.
In the first 20 years of my political life, I was accused of being an anti-Chinese educated or an CIA, MI6, KGB or Australian secret service agent but in the last 20 years, I was accused of being anti-Malay, anti-Islam, anti-Royalty, communist, and promoting Islamophobia

The six state polls ended ten days ago but its results are still analysed by politicians, political scientists, and Malaysians as a whole as to what it import for Malaysia — whether a Sheraton Move 2.0 could be tried to topple the Anwar unity government.
Let Malaysians, regardless of race, religion, region or politics celebrate one common National Day as is the practice for 66 years

I commented last August that the National Day 2022 was diametrically different from the National Day 2020 and 2021 — there was hope and anticipation instead of black despair and a sense of hopelessness.

Was I being overdramatic when I said yesterday that “After 54 years, Malaysia is teetering on the edge of another May 13, 1969 riots”.
Let us think back to the days of May 11, 12, and 13, 1969.
Did anybody expected May 13, 1969 riots to erupt?
The six state polls on August 12 is a battle between the future and the past, a Malaysia based on the unity of all Malaysians regardless of race, religion, region, gender or age and a denial of this concept
